Texans have a good chance if kubiak comes out bold and has something creative in his game plan instead of the standard, need to the run the ball and play action and all that especially if it doesnt work early on. To beat teams in big games, you need to take some chances, is kubiak that kind of person ?
"Good chance"? While that is a non specific phrase, I take "good chance" to mean more likely than not. I do not believe the Texans have a more likely than not chance of beating the Patriots by boldly going outside what has led them to a lofty total of 13 wins. Sure, the Texans have struggled as of late but overall they have been a very productive offense. They have largely done that with a combination of handing the ball off to Foster and passing to Johnson and Daniels. In my opinion the Patriot defense not implicitly force the need to go away from your bread and butter....
If the Patriots jump out to a sizable lead is the time for the high risk high reward stuff. But Kubiak doing that out of the gate?? That would say to his team he believes they can't beat the Patriots without rolling the dice. That is what a 9-7 team that barely made the playoffs does not a 13 win team.
